Minutes

Agenda Item	Discussion	Action	Time Frame
1. Do you think that our script follows the correct genre of The Games Corner? Why?	Vicky agreed that our script follows the correct genre and has good coverage such as Gaming Expo’s and releases	None Needed	N/A
2. When researching our week, it seemed to be very slow for news - Do you think that this shows or is there enough content for a substantial news section?	Vicky told us that she thinks that the brevity of the script does show however in order to improve this, we could research more local events and talk about local companies.	Sophie is going to research games releases in more detail to current games mentioned in order to give more information. Molly will type the research up to amend the script to act on Vicky’s feedback. Annabel will find footage and gain copyright permission to use in between the news section.	23/05/15
3. Do you think that the dialogue is shared between you and Jordan well or is it too one sided?	Vicky thinks that the dialogue is evenly shared between both presenters.	None Needed	N/A
4.  Does the language and form used in the script make it understandable for your target audience? Why?	Vicky told us that she thinks the language and form used are appropriate and other audiences would understand the language and form too.	None Needed	N/A
5.  What would you change about our script?	Overall, Vicky said that the script is too short and doesn’t really cover much about what we are telling the viewers.	As a team, we will do the above actions in order to make the script longer and include more detail about games releases as well as add detail about local gaming conventions.	24/05/14

LO2: Moodboard and Audience Profile

The Games Corner has a PRS social grade of C1, D & E which means viewers have very little disposable income and quite a few families are on benefits.   This is due to SLTV only being available for the people of Sheffield and Sheffield is known as being a deprived area.

Hey, I'm Josh and I'm 15 and from Sheffield.  I'm currently studying my GCSEs at Chaucer School.  My favourite subject at school is art and I'm predicted to get an A in it! I really enjoy writing too because it lets my creativity flow.   But my main interest is gaming.  I'm not ashamed to admit I am one of the biggest gaming geeks going.  My favourite game is the Halo trilogy which I started playing on Xbox 360 but now I have an Xbox One and the graphics on it are just amazing.   I love the surreal escapism of the gaming, it takes me to a different place.  My gaming obsession started when I was around 10 and I was introduced to Minecraft by my older brother.  I literally didn't see day light for weeks on end when I first discovered Minecraft.   I love everything about it, the missions and wars as well as the social side.  I now have my own clan and we've all added each other on Xbox Live and play other games against each other.  I get an allowance from my mum and dad weekly which I save to buy new games.  My next purchase will be the new Star Wars game which is getting released before the new film!!  In order to help me decide which games to buy, I enjoy watching YouTube reviews.  My personal favourite reviewer is Arsonall and he reviews all of the adventure sci-fi games which are right up my street.  I have recently found out that Sheffield Live TV! are launching a gaming show called Games Corner which I will definitely be watching religiously.  I love hearing to people's opinions of games and seeing what they rate them.  I also want to go to a gaming convention in the summer such as Play Expo and I've heard that the guys at Games Corner have an episode based all around it so I'll be watching and seeing how good they thought it was!  Also, the new section that they have will inform me of any upcoming gaming nights and events which I'm really interested in attending.​
